I wrote an install guide for a blank copy of mIRC somewhere else a while ago. Here's an edited version of it. Let me know if it works or not, I kinda wrote it a year ago. Click on the links contained to see picture examples of what to do at each step (the pictures are from mIRC v. 6.21, but 6.17 isn't much different).

I followed this to a T but it still doesn't work. "Unable to connect to server (connection timed out)" is all I get. Java is up to date.

I guess I will bump this since I am at a loss as to why I can't get into the chat. I get this every time I try to get in. And I have updated Java/Flash to the newest versions and this happens on all my browsers.
